A few factoids to go with your morning cereal

But coming back from a 3-2 series deficit will certainly test the mettle of the Spurs’ team to rebound and win Wednesday night at Oklahoma City, forcing a potential seventh game Friday night in San Antonio.

Here are a few factoids and tidbits from Monday’s 108-103 loss to the Thunder to consume with your breakfast.

The Spurs did not lose a game for 50 days during their 20-game winning streak. They have now lost three times in the last five days.

The Spurs’ three-game losing streak is their first since losing three straight games from April 12-17, 2011. Those were the last two games of the regular season and Game 1 of the first-round playoff series to Memphis.

In Monday’s game, the Spurs led Oklahoma City in points in the paint (38-30), second-chance points (17-7) and fast-break points (15-13). It’s the first time this season that the Spurs have led in all three speciality categories and still lost the game.

Oklahoma City hit 61.1 percent from the field in the third quarter and 52.6 percent in the fourth quarter. It was only the fourth time this season the Spurs have allowed opponents to shoot better than 50 percent in each of the final two quarters. That trend also happened in losses Jan. 17 at Miami and Feb. 21 at Portland and a Feb. 15 victory at Toronto.

Manu Ginobili’s 34 points were his top scoring game since scoring 35 points against Memphis on Feb. 27, 2011.

Best quote (Oklahoma City): “Definitely, we learned from Game 1. That first game we didn’t move the ball as well and we didn’t defend as well. I thought we did a good job of weathering the storm. We won the game because of toughness,” Oklahoma City coach Scott Brooks on his team’s gritty victory after squandering a similar fourth-quarter lead in Game 1.

Best quote (San Antonio): “”It wasn’t a great shot, but it wasn’t a bad one. It just didn’t go in,” Ginobili on missing the potential game-tying 3-pointer in the final seconds.

Monday’s loss snapped an 11-game home winning streak for the Spurs, dating to their loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on April 11.

The Thunder snapped a six-game losing streak at the AT&T Center, winning there for the first time since Nov. 14, 2009. Before Monday, the Thunder/Seattle SuperSonics had lost 29 of their last 35 games in San Antonio.

And about Wednesday night: the website Whowins.com indicates that teams ahead 3-2 in a series have won 85.7 percent of the 244 previous NBA series. For a team at home for Game 6 like Oklahoma City, they have won 91.8 percent of the series and 51.3 percent of previous Game 6.
